Great starter job for 20-somethings to gain basic administrative skills, not the place to house your career. - Recensione dipendente - Senior Sales Associate presso Hanover Research

Vantaggi

(for Sales) Fun environment, great entry-level pay, very nice office space. Great benefits. Aggressive, goal-driven atmosphere.

Svantaggi

Inexperienced, impulsive, and immature executive leadership team. Smart people, but they do not have concrete or proven management skills. Entry level associates make more than many directors or managers which creates a very lopsided compensation structure. Compensation is also directly correlated to your "luck of the draw" in terms of the director you are placed with. Uncertain what the function of "Strategy" is other than hypothesizing and whiteboard-drawing. If it's going to be an arm of the company, research and initial outreach to garner interest for new product development should definitely fall under this umbrella. Sales team should be busy selling, not hounding executives for informational interviews regarding products that may or may not be launched.

Thank you for your feedback. We are proud of our rich benefits package and goal-driven environment so we are glad to hear that you enjoyed your time at Hanover Research. As a relatively young company, we are also proud of the fact that our CEO built a 200+-employee, 800+-client, wholly self-funded business from scratch across the last ten years. The team around him helped grow the business 60% in 2013 and they have set the firm up for even faster growth in 2014. Our Sales Directors have an average tenure of 3 years at Hanover. This is higher than the industry average for sales and underscores that they are well compensated and well managed. Our Strategy and New Product Development team was responsible for more than half a dozen new products/services in 2013. In developing those, they asked for support from and collaborated with every single other department at the company. We operate proudly with an “all hands” mentality and it is this mindset that helps us drive innovation and create opportunities for staff to transition internally. That said, we do appreciate your feedback and will continue to support internal professional development of staff at all levels.
